His‚ Biological Mother‚ Cherly and My‚ Father Thomas (Tom)‚ hasn't had contact with him‚ since he‚ was 5 months old.

2678. Agraham1144 : I was born in Lawrence‚ MA April 21st 2004. I was adopted at 3 years old. The only info I know os that my birth mother was fairly young and name Joanna or Johanna Ortega.
2679. CarlaJackman : I am searching for relatives of my children's grandmother. She was adopted in Lowell‚ MA in 1932. Her adoptive parents were Margaret (McEacham) Ryder and Carl Ryder from Jefferson (Holden)‚ MA.
The name she was given was Barbara F Ryder. She married Donald Bourassa from North Grafton and had three children: Donna‚ David and Robert Bourassa. She died on May 27‚ 2997.
She is the grandmother of my children and they would like to be able to find some of her biological family members (probably nieces and nephews at this point)
2681. Julesmh : According to my knowledge I was born in Springfield MA @ Wesson's women's hospital and adopted through Brightside orphanage. My biological mother was 18 yrs old at the time of my birth. I took a DNA test using 23&me. My mother's mother was deceased when I was born. And she was in a foster home with her brother for 2yrs after her mother passed until her father remarried. One of my parents is 100% British Irish & the other mixed..Portuguese‚ Puerto Rican Indian tribe‚ & African..both my adopted parents are now deceased...Im ready to search!
2682. CEseal : Searching for a half brother born sometime between August-early October of 1960. I believe he was born at Holyoke Hospital and the adoption was facilitated through Sisters of Providence/Catholic Charities/Brightside.
I do not currently (2025) have a match on Ancestery that is consistent with a half sibling so this is an individual who has not completed any testing with that service.
2683. MelanieBaxter521 : If your name is Kaleb J Sparks and have light golden brown hair‚ with beautiful honey brown eyes and you remember an auntie Emmy‚ auntie lexis‚ auntie TT‚ if you remember as a 3-4 year old you used to lick the glaze off the munchkins from Honey Dew and throw them back in the bag hehe‚ you used to always sing mama “ah-ma ma ma mah”‚ if you remember a (very) chunky black cat with white paws named mittens‚ how lights/fire places always (and maybe still do) make you calm. You swore your chase hat was your hair when you were 4… I am your birth mom‚ I fought very hard to get you back but I lost every time. I love you with everything in me and if one day you want to find me I’m here and I’ll be looking too bubbahs ❤️
2685. Dawnofeverything87 : Not sure what to put here‚ so I'll list some facts.
I was born in Boston on January 12 1987 to a woman who (according to my adoptive parents) wanted to name me "Dawn". I was surrendered at birth to a Catholic charity of some kind and was placed in the care of a foster for at least the first months of my first year.
I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.
